Around 1.8 million British holidaymakers are set to head overseas over this Easter Bank holiday weekend, according to ABTA.
It said holidaymakers are flocking to the Eurozone to take advantage of the cheaper Euro.
Airports are reporting strong numbers: 393,000 will leave from Heathrow, 250,000 from Gatwick, 153,000 from Stansted, 70,000 from Luton.
From the North and the Midlands, 125,000 will leave from Manchester, 51,000 from Birmingham and South West and 23,000 from East Midlands with 37,000 from Bristol airport.
Well over 100,000 will be leaving via the Scottish airports with 64,000 departing from Edinburgh alone.
Meanwhile, Eurostar is reporting that 85,000 will be departing the UK on its trains.
Spain is the top destination over the weekend, with the Canary and Balearic Islands the most popular areas.
ABTA said due to Easter falling quite early this year, skiers are also heading off to catch the last of the season’s snow with Switzerland doing particularly well.
ABTA chief executive Mark Tanzer said: "Holidaymakers are flocking to the Eurozone to take advantage of the cheaper Euro. While UK breaks have also proved popular with low fuel prices boosting travel around the country."
